    Why talk to Kate Reder Sheikh?

    Yan-Xin Li joined Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati's San Francisco office in the Intellectual Property group.

    My New York-based MLA recruiter connected with me with Kate because I was considering exploring San Francisco as a market. And now here I am in amazing California. My entire interview process was seamless because of Kate. She was always responsive, gave me helpful information, adequately prepared me for interviews and calls, and just an incredible resource for all things technical (e.g., timing and logistics of switching employers and giving notice) and non-technical (e.g., local advice on SF neighborhoods, answering random questions related to a cross-country move). I consider her a colleague and a friend, and I think you'd be in great hands as her client.

    Why talk to Priya Gulati?

    Adam Grajewski joined Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati's San Diego office in the Corporate group.

    Priya gets it done. Regardless of how strong you are as a candidate, Priya adds value to your search in ways you may not appreciate until you're in the process. She provides a personalized strategy, impeccable organization skills and responsiveness, a sterling reputation among law firm contacts, invaluable insights, dedicated interview prep and so much more. On top of that, she does her job with grace and integrity. When I had an offer in hand and was considering all options, Priya did NOT pressure me to accept the offer, and even suggested I might want to stay put if I felt a certain way. This was against her immediate self interest and speaks volumes about the kind of person and professional she is. Finally, Priya is so down to Earth and a true joy to work with. I can't recommend her enough.

    Why talk to Summer Eberhard?

    Anjali Krishnan joined Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati's San Francisco office in the Tax group.

    Summer helped me navigate the west coast legal market as a foreign attorney which was a challenge with my practice. She gave great insights on the market to steer me in the right direction and even worked with me in putting my materials together. Most importantly, she was extremely responsive and managed my expectations along the journey. I am thankful to her for helping me transition to the US market.
